Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today I’m going to have questions there for the Minister responsible for Public Works and Services in regards to the barging resupply. Some communities along the Mackenzie River are solely dependent on one courier at this point in time and there’s other couriers in the area but they, for some reason, do not have the port licence to stop in say, Fort Good Hope, for example, so the one courier is under contract with this government. I would like to get more information on the scheduling and so on to provide confidence to the two stores in Fort Good Hope, for example, and the other two communities that there will be scheduled service this year. In most cases there, whether it’s personal or this government or the capital project, it is dependent to ensure that those goods and services are being delivered on time and scheduled to take advantage of the summer construction season. That’s just some logistical comments on that, but later on I will have questions. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
